Thanks isaa & cami. Tiz you definitely have to come here to Australia! You would love it! You have a wonderful country for nature too.
You are a lycky gal :) Thanks to you, Mark and Mac, I have realized I have to go to Australia one day! Fantastic nature!
I love dolphins. They are so beautiful. This spotting was when we were on a dive boat and were going out to swim with huge manta rays. These were a bonus.
Very nice spotting, I hope you enjoyed the view :)
